Transport Compliance Manager - Anglesey

Transport Compliance Manager

Running a fleet of logistics vehicles is about as vital a task as is possible for a logistics operation, and there will be a dedicated team devoted to maintenance, acquisition, leasing, operation and disposal to maintain efficiency and profitability. However, the law is also an important factor in the operation of a logistics fleet, and that’s where the transport compliance manager comes in.

The overarching remit of transport compliance manager jobs is to ensure the rules of the road in the relevant jurisdictions are observed as regards vehicles, their drivers and their maintenance crews. The manager might have some hands-on responsibilities in smaller companies, but in larger operations they will be ensuring all the responsibilities are taken care of with regard to ensuring vehicles are road-fit, tachographs are inspected and calibrated, and that drivers are fully licenced for their roles and are not exceeding hours allowable.

A lot of this work will be delegated to the maintenance teams and the drivers themselves, with the managerial role being mainly administrative and proactive. It could require an in-depth knowledge of a diverse range of vehicles or could be focused on LGVs, HGVs or delivery vans, depending on the role.

The skills required

There is no grey area for the transport compliance manager – you will need an encyclopaedic understanding of the law surrounding logistics vehicles in the country or countries in which they operate. Governments and police take compliance very seriously and breaches can be damaging to companies’ reputations as well as presenting a risk to life, so the employer will be relying on you to know your stuff.

You’ll also be a person who keeps on top of changes in the law and its direction of travel across jurisdictions, and you will often need to plan changes in advance as they relate to your industry. That will involve plenty of reading and monitoring, as well as ongoing training, attending seminars and training up maintenance crews and drivers on the changes.

Transport Compliance Manager Jobs in Anglesey

Anglesey is an island county off the coast of North Wales, but is an integral part of Wales itself, with Welsh culture part of its inherent makeup. The island was joined to mainland Wales in the nineteenth century by two bridges near Bangor, one designed by Thomas Telford, the other by Robert Stephenson. Anglesey’s population of around 70,000 is concentrated mainly in the north-west port of Holyhead, which houses around 14,000. It is also the county town and an important ferry port, with regular services to Dublin.

There is a certain amount of tourism in Anglesey, but not as much as there is on the North Wales coast. The island is rather agricultural in nature, although the port provides an important cluster of jobs and helps the economy greatly. As with any port town, Transport Compliance Manager jobs do become available in Holyhead, which makes Anglesey among the best place in the North Wales region to find such work.
